Since you enjoyed FOSE, I wanted to make sure you knew about the NEW Government Information and Analytics Summit. For the first time ever, all the critical disciplines that underpin analytics: big data, business intelligence, knowledge management, records and information management and information sharing will converge at the new Government Information and Analytics Summit, November 28-29.
The Government Information and Analytics Summit brings together thought leaders in information management from both government and industry that will present the new toolkit and case studies demonstrating the applications in Federal settings, as well as the management and policy frameworks required for their success.
It will surely be a ground breaking event and I urge you to take advantage of the early bird rate ($200 in savings!). Register Today!
All the best,
Ramon C. Barquin Ph.D, Program Chair
President, Barquin International

The 2nd annual FOSE Blogger & Speaker Meetup was a lively discussion of what we thought were the biggest developments in federal IT this past year, at FOSE, and for the future.
Cloud computing and mobile government were of course, quickly mentioned, along with U.S. Chief Information Officer (CIO) Steven VanRoekel's common approach to the design of future federal architectures and Tom Koulopoulos, author of The Innovation Zone, on innovative approaches to how government can stay cutting edge and how to recognize the next big idea.

The second day of FOSE started with a keynote address by Senator George J. Mitchell, former U.S. Special Envoy for Middle East Peace under the Obama Administration. He discussed how advances in technology have changed the environment of conflict resolution.
The Senator’s keynote followed two interesting and important topics within the “Insider Threat” issue. The first panel, “Insider Threat – The New Presidential Directive” consisted of moderator Gordon Snow from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Deanna Caputo of MITRE and John Swift at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

FOSE 2012 started off strong with the federal CIO, Steven VanRoekel, as the morning keynote. His eye-opening speech delivered some strong facts on what’s happening in government right now, and the huge movements he is leading toward creating a more technologically friendly and savvy government. Mr VanRoekel is partnering with private sector and public sector to provide citizen engagement at a high level.
His goal is to build a 21st century digital government, while innovating with increasingly fewer dollars. While the budget of $80B might sound huge, it is ever shrinking against the requirements. Mr VanRoekel is working to meet the mobile expectations of both citizens and employees, providing services “anytime, anywhere and on any device.” He is trying to institute a culture of innovation and “leanness” to the federal IT workers, which should pay off in increased attention to ROI and metrics.
